Preserved Tanks

About PreservedTanks.com

PreservedTanks.com has been created by Trevor Larkum of Armour Archive to provide information on preserved tanks around the world. It is being built initially using the content from existing Armour Archive publications, including Preserved German Tanks 1: A7V to Panzer IV, Preserved German Tanks 2: Panzer V Panther to Leopard 2, Preserved Tanks in France, Preserved Tanks in Russia, and so on (these publications are available as paperback books from Armour Archive).

The first books to be put online were Preserved German Tanks Volumes 1 and 2 (see the links at the top). So far the first chapter of Preserved Tanks in Russia, covering Kubinka Tank Museum, is also online whilst the first chapter of Preserved Tanks in France, covering Normandy, is in the process of being added.

The site went online publicly, in beta form, on Sunday 8th June 2008.

Blog Comment Issue

I was wondering about the lack of comments to my blog entries, so I tried adding one myself and found I couldn't. I fixed the bug today so it should all be working fine now. My apologies to anyone who had previously tried to post a comment but was unsuccessful. Please feel free to post a comment now (if only to check it works!).

The First Blog

This is my first blog entry. Having overhauled Armour Archive I have ArmourArchive

now embarked on the much more ambitious project of creating PreservedTanks.com. After much jumping between hosting providers and technologies, I have settled down to build an ASP.NET site using Microsoft Visual Web Developer, and hosted by eUKHost.com. For now I'm just trying to learn the technologies, particularly using a SQL Server back end to hold the data.
